A 364 g block is put in contact with a thermal reservoir. The block is initially at a lower temperature than the reservoir. Assume that the consequent transfer of energy as heat from the reservoir to the block is reversible. Figure 20-22 gives the change in entropy S of the block until thermal equilibrium is reached.The scale of the horizontal axis is set by Ta 280 K and Tb 380 K.What is the specific heat of the block? 604020TaT (K)TbFigure 20-22 10.
